There are many places with biased police, and they probably would be better off without. In those places one becomes a cop in order to get the graft. I wonder how relevant that motivation is in medical research.
Whenever you go to read a scientific paper, skip to the end and find out who paid for the research! Then decide if you should spend your time reading in entirety.
It's archives go back to 1967 and it has never taken money from pharma. It has also never been indexed on pubmed or medline due to medical politics (aka: monied vested interests).
What a concept, ethics! Independent third-party should be mandatory for studies.
At my work in Canada, I'm a third-party quality assurance inspector. I'm not allowed to work for the same company that I'm inspecting the work of, to avoid conflict of interest.
How could this not be a thing with something as important as health?
Thank you for shedding light on this issue. I supposedly have high cholesterol, but all my bloodwork is perfect, and my A1C is at 4.4. I went to another doctor who is an ultra-athlete and older; he said everyone wished they had my stats and cholesterol. Older medicine is better. I take nothing because I don't need it. Thanks to a second opinion.
Wonderful work. Thank you for your hard work and honesty!
Excellent article! Thank you !

Dr Jason, the *biggest* current medical issue is the total loss of trust in anything that doctors tell us. We are back in the dark ages.
